Internet meltdown predicted for tomorrow - GoFuckYourself.com

sorry if this has been posted:

"A RUSSIAN computer security expert has predicted that a large chunk of the Internet will be shut down by terrorists tomorrow.
Aleksandr Gostev from Kaspersky Labs was speaking at a conference hosted by Russian Information Agency Novosti. The cyber terrorists main targets will be the US and Western Europe, he said.

Gostev said that the information on the attack could be found on "specialist web sites" although at the time of going to press the INQ couldn?t find them.

The story first appeared on the Lenta.ru web agency and might be as valid as this this one, however we are hedging our bets and buying in extra cans of beans. µ"

Manowar · 08-25-2004, 03:52 AM

I doubt Nostradamus was trying to make $$ from his failed prophecies.

I have been hearing stories about the sky falling with the Internet for years, February 14th 1997 being the last time someone predicted the end was near for the internet and it was a non-event.

Next story will be about CrimethInc and his call to attack the RNC servers all next week.

Its all a bunch of bullshit.

BrainClaude · 08-25-2004, 04:27 AM
